I use my Delicious bookmarks as a way to keep track of all the stories and pages I think are important but I may not have time to read - or those that I do read that I know I will want to share or reference later on. When I wrote the content for my <a href="http://www.mcbuzz.com/services/social-media-marketing/" title="Social Media Marketing - McBuzz Seattle" rel="nofollow">Social Media Marketing</a> page on this site, I recalled reading that more people got their news from the Internet than newspapers in 2008. Had I not bookmarked the page in Delicious, I could have spent an hour trying to find it again. The <a href="http://www.mcbuzz.com/services/search-engine-optimization/" title="Search Engine Optimization in Seattle" rel="nofollow">Search Engine Optimization</a> benefits of Delicious are probably not great, but I do think Google looks at the number of times a page has been bookmarked. What it does with that information is debatable. @Zlowtech
